3-hour Rovaniemi ice fishing in Lapland with gear and winter clothing. Drill a hole, fish with a guide, then warm by fire.
“This was a very enjoyable activity! Having a small group really made this experience. The location was great, equipment was good quality and the ending with a campfire and snacks was a great way to warm up after sitting out in the cold. We did this on a sunny day which made it much easier to sit outside on the lake for a couple of hours, but it may be an entirely different experience on a cold rainy or windy day.”
